Issue #473
Before iOS 13
Use UIScreen.didConnectNotification
NotificationCenter.default.addObserver(forName: UIScreen.didConnectNotification,
object: nil, queue: nil) { (notification) in
// Get the new screen information.
let newScreen = notification.object as! UIScreen
let screenDimensions = newScreen.bounds
// Configure a window for the screen.
let newWindow = UIWindow(frame: screenDimensions)
newWindow.screen = newScreen
// Install a custom root view controller in the window.
self.configureAuxilliaryInterface(with: newWindow)
// You must show the window explicitly.
newWindow.isHidden = false
// Save a reference to the window in a local array.
self.additionalWindows.append(newWindow)}
From iOS 13
Handle configurationForConnecting
@UIApplicationMain
class AppDelegate: UIResponder, UIApplicationDelegate {
var newWindow: UIWindow!
// MARK: UISceneSession Lifecycle
func application(_ application: UIApplication, configurationForConnecting connectingSceneSession: UISceneSession, options: UIScene.ConnectionOptions) -> UISceneConfiguration {
// Called when a new scene session is being created.
// Use this method to select a configuration to create the new scene with.
print(UIApplication.shared.connectedScenes)
let scene = UIWindowScene(session: connectingSceneSession, connectionOptions: options)
// Configure a window for the screen.
self.newWindow = UIWindow(frame: CGRect(x: 0, y: 0, width: 1000, height: 500))
// self.newWindow.backgroundColor = UIColor.yellow
// Install a custom root view controller in the window.
let viewController = UIStoryboard(name: "Main", bundle: nil).instantiateViewController(identifier: "other") as! OtherViewController
self.newWindow.rootViewController = viewController
self.newWindow.windowScene = scene
// You must show the window explicitly.
self.newWindow.isHidden = false
return UISceneConfiguration(name: "External configuration", sessionRole: connectingSceneSession.role)
}
